IMO The reason is that 4500 baitrunners do NOT have the "super slow ossillation" of the spool that their other reels do. It works, but not as well as the stratic and stella types. With these reels you can actaully tune the spool to lay the line on there in a certain fashion that is braid friendly and the spools lays the line on there nice and slow (like rope on a spool, instead of up and down real fast) If this is your problem you might try another braid or switch to mono...or buy another reel that works with braid. (fireline may work better...but it is not as thin as PP)

I wonder how the "ossilation" on my 706z is.It does have a nice big an narrow spool.
I bet the folks over at shimano made that word up.
